MEMPHIS, Tenn, Aug. q, The battle of
the Smiths was renewed and again the
Memphis twirler got little the best of it.
The Charleston pitcher, however, pitched
strong game and but for punching of hits
by the locals in the sixth inning, as
sisted by errors of Hines and Nicholas,
the score would not have shown
so great a discrepancy. The features of the
game were two magnificent catches of long
flies caught by Carl after desperate run,
and q similar catch by Baker, of the
Browns, who has just returned from St.
Louis and covered right field. The score
by innings follows;

AN EXPERT BRlCKMAKER.
The Story Told by Chicago MAN.
Gathering Methods and Points.

40 man III Chicago is possessed of more IN
forInrlion on thesubjelt Of b:iclmaklng than
Ccoroc H. Pullman. Though probably with
out personal experience in tho mixing and
burning Of clay, Mr. Pullman might he SET
Town as an expert brickmaker. Aslllustratlng
the thorouchacs, with which Pullman eS
preparations before embariiing In an enter
prise, a well known brio maker tells very
good story. Some years ago, when Pullman
was preparing TO engage in the brick business
IN the shores Of Lake Calumet, this brick
maker received an invitation TO call on tho
sleeping car magnate and talk bricknaklnS
Having in view the inferentia possibility OF
a co-partnership, or contract, or other profit
able connection with the Pullman town
building enterprise, the brickmaker gladly
availed himself of the opportunity thus
offered. Pullman received him graclousy,
and in private showed him samples OF Lake
Calumet clay. asked questions concerning
blickmalsing methods and materials and lis
tened quite patiently while the brickmaker,
warming up with III, subject and naturally
anxious TO make a good impression, some
what enthusiastically related his experience
during the last twenty years, and described
many Of the processes which he had hitherto
held almost as secrets. The interview over,
Pullman said he would take t.. matter under
consideration, and that his caller might ex-
pect to hear from him again almost any day.
As yet the bricbmaker has not heard from
Pullman. He was not long in learning how
ever, that half dozen other skilled brick
makers had been similarly favored by the
ambitious town builder. and that from all OF
them the host had drawn descriptions of their
favorito methods and many valuable points
concerning materials and machinery More
over 1t was soon learned that while these
bric!;maling gentlemen were thus talking to
Mr. Pullman in that gentlemans private Of
iice a shorthand man was industriously at
worl, behind a screen making verbatim
record Of al he heard.
No one Of tho expert brickmakers was
called FOR a second time by the sleeping car
landlord, but in a few months they all heard,
with what chagrin may be easily imagined,
that Pullman had engaged in the brickmak-
ing business on his own account.-Chcago

Convict Cases.

The City Circuit Court was engaged
Yesterday trying the cases of cOnvicts
charged with escaping and second con-
viction.
John Baker, Archer Lee, Jim Harris,
Nathan Lee, Richard Puryear, Ben Tur-
man, William Cabbell were tried for es-
Gaping from the penitentiary. They were
all found guilty and sentenced to an ex-
ira term each of one year
In the case of S. w. Blackburn, who
escaped and returned Of his own accord,
the jury returned verdict of not guilty.
Morgan Witcher, who was tried as to
his second conviction, denied that he had
ever been in the penitentiary before.
There being no evidence to prove that he
had been, the jury decided that he was
not the person who had been before con-
victed. He was accordingly returned to
the custody of the officers, and received
no additional punishment.

DtsDutPd Diamonds.

The Circuit Court was engaged yester-
day in the case of Samuel Benditt against
Isaac Lichenstein. This is suit brought
by Benditt against Lichenstein for the re-
cOvery of set of diamonds. 1t is al
legged by the defence that Mrs. Caroline
Benditt, wife of Samuel Benditt, pawned
a set of diamonds consisting of solitaire
earrings and breastpin in North Caro-
lima.
Mr.. Lichenstein, a cousin of hers, fire.
quently assisted her pecuniarily and also
advanced the money for her to redeem
her Jewels. Feeling grateful for what
Mr. Lichenstein had done for her, she
gave him the diamonds to repay him for
the money he had advanced Six months
after her death Benditt made demand
on Mr.. Lichenstein for the diamonds.
He refused to give them up.
Benditt denies that his wife gave
Lichenstein the diamonds, and claims
that it was understood between them that
he was to surrender the diamonds when
the $50 which he had advanced was re-
turned to him.
Judge Edmund Waddill and Mr.. Will
liam Writ Henry are counsel for Benditt;
Mr.. c. V. Meredith represents Lichen-
stein. The trial was pending when the
court adjourned at 2:30 o'clock.

THE JANrsH MARRIAGE.
A Very Poor Joke to Say the Least.


The following is taken from the Lynch
burg Virginidn Of yesterday.
After her performance at the opera
house in this city Tuesday night, re-
porter called on the Countess at the Nor
veil Arlington, and asked her as to the
truth Of the report; and she authorized
the statement that if any such license
had been procured it was without her
knowledge or consent, and that she is
utterly at a loss TO comprehend how
such a license could have been issued
under such extraordinary circumstances.
"Mr. Moore said that the thing was a
joke perpetrated by himself in order to
show the actress how loosely such things
were managed in this country"
1t is pity there is no law to teach this
"fresh" young man that such matters are
not considered Jokes in this latitude. The
marriage laws of Virginia are not loose
not half as loose as they are in some sec
tions: and Moore acted under false pre-
lenses if he did nothing worse.
The Danville Register of yesterday ar
CUES that it was no joke, and gives rea-
sons for the truth that is in it. 1t con-
cludes its article at follows:
"More than that, as soon as Mr.. Stone
heard about the license, he went to mad
ame's room, and was easily seen from a
room across the street. He made violent
GESTURES, and it was plain to see that he
was demonstrating with madame. In
deed, ii was no secret that he told mad
anne plainly that if she married Mr.. Fox
he would cancel his contract with her.
There was not much joke about it,

child years old, intelligent, healthy and well
developed, that seems to have no bones in its
limbs 1t can sit on bench and without
any assistance from its hands can put both
feet behind his head and fold them just the
same as any person could place both arms in
a similar position. The child will sit on the
floor and is quite as likely TO have its heels up
as its toes IL can double itself up and roll
all over tho floor. Tho marvel is the child
does not assist any one limb with another in

Honesty of ,IeMeIprS.

The idea entertained by many persons that
dishonest members of our craft have been
known to replace the works Of handsome
watch by inferior ones, while it was under
going repairs, is prepostcrous 1t is doubtless
true that some owners of fine timepieces are
absurdly careful of the hands intrusted with
their property; but if a knowledge Of our
business was not generally confined 70 pro-

would no more dream Of making an exchange

would think Of exchanging wheels with a

The committee resolved that it was in
expedient to decrease the price Of gas at

mended to the council that some plan

the various departments.
After the joint session there was a

quantity of routine business was trans
